Statues by Paul Manship.




Actaeon


Here he depicts the climatic moment in the Actaeon story.
For daring to set eyes on Diana he was punished by being turned into a stag.
As he is transformed his own dogs tear him to pieces.



The Cycle of Life

Complicated symbolism includes the signs of the Zodiac, the four elements and the cycle of life at the base.



Diana.


Here the Goddess of the Hunt is accompanied by one of her hounds.


Evening.


Designed for a fountain, the sinuous allegorical figure of Evening floats above sculptured clouds.


The Flight of Europa

Here Jupiter, disguised as a bull, plunges through the waves borne by four dolphins.
A demure Europa, seated backwards listens to Cupid at her ear.
